The top three-year-olds were back at Flemington to contest the Group 1
Cadbury Guineas on a beautiful day for racing. The track was rated 'Good' despite some
rain on Friday. The field almost mirrored that of The Debonair from a fortnight ago but
also included Zarek, who finished second in the VRC Derby last spring, and the smart filly
Gold Lottey. Royal Code was sent out favourite but it was Dash For Cash who scored again
to prove he is the best three-year-old in Melbourne. He was ridden by the Group 1 jockey
of the moment, Scott Seamer, who has now won nine group one races this season. Glen Boss,
rider of Royal Code (second), dropped his whip at the top of the straight but the winner
was so strong on the line it may have made no difference. The Bart Cummings trained
Ustinov ran on well for third and is shaping as a stayer of the future. |
